Boy scouts in the U.S. are midway through a 10-week cross-country journey to raise awareness and funds for cancer research. The intrepid scouts complete the task on August 18 in Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina.

Recently released documents appear to indicate that Lord Baden-Powell, the Boy Scout founder, when a British officer in the Matabele War, executed an African Rebel chief, despite promises of safe-keeping should the chief give himself up to authorities.
